Memories of Christmas at grandma and grandpa\u2019s house, with my parents, aunt, uncle, and cousins. I remember that I always got to open my presents first because we went in order from youngest to oldest. I would drive my cousins crazy, taking my sweet time unwrapping my gifts (as I got older, this was mostly deliberate!). <\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I also remember a big turkey dinner with all the fixings: mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes (yuck!), stuffing, peas and\/or corn, gravy, and cranberry sauce. I\u2019m sure there were pies, but since I didn\u2019t eat them, I don\u2019t really remember; but I do remember there was always a Jell-O mold. It\u2019s been over thirty years since we were all together.
